II and 13 West Pearl Street Cincinnati Office, Room 4. Carlisle Building. COMMERCIAL RECORD. Henry ('lens's Financial Letter. Henry Clews, in his weekly financial letter. issued at New York, says: On the Stock Exchange we have had another week of dullness. The tone of the market, however, has been decidedly strong, with indications of an approaching recovery in prices. There has been a general suspension of speculative selling, and any moderate revival of buying would be likely to give an upward impulse to prices. The substantial backing to the market for ttie coming week will be the large buying for the investment of the semi-annual dividend and Interest money, which will be paid out on the first of the month and will be the largest amount paid by corporations on record. It will be but natural for the recipients of this money to be appreciative of the good treatment they have received by the various companies who have contributed this income, which they are likely to show by reinvesting in the same properties. What better evidence to base confidence upon can investors have than the iuirce their income provides? Such buying, consequently, cannot fail to be large and will be an important factor in advancing pis?es in the immediate future. Besides that, additional encouragement will be found in the good crop prospects in all directions, the superabundance of money, and the continued confidence in the result of the war and,its early termination. Asa matter of fact, there is scarcely any cause for distrust to come from any quarter. The war has certainly served one wholesome purpose in keeping Americans from indulging in foreign travel this summer to a very great extent. The expenditures are not likely to be more than one-half that of former years for that purpose, making a saving to this country of at least $50,000,000. This is an item of considerable importance. These stay-at-home people, instead of traveling in Europe, will do so in this country, and our internal transportation companies will be corresponding gainers. In view of these factoirs, the market sterns to be verging towards a condition in which a fresh rise in prices will become the order of the unexpectedly here, the Bank of England on Thursday put down its rate to 2V- per cent. This Indicates a more settled feeling on the European money markets, and no doubt in part reflects the revival of confidence due to the settlement of the dispute between England and France on the distribution of African territory. That settlement removes a very serious danger from the region of foreign politics and, so far, it is calculated to revive confidence in the European investment markets, in w’hich our own may possibly participate. No doubt the action of the bank has been influenced by the prospect of American payments of July interest and dividends to foreign holders, which can hardly be estimated at less than $40,000,000. This liquidates a considerable part of the balance of indebtedness due from Europe to the United States and so far diminishes the tension in the foreign exchanges. But there must still remain a large unliquidated sum of tnat floating debt, which may soon show its eflect in a renewal of gold shipments to the United States. Bills drawn against our new crops will be soon forthcoming, and with a less amount of imports to be remitted for than usual, it is not impossible that, within the present month, gold may be flowing freely in this direction. This foreshadows a continuance of the present ease in tne local money market. It is now generally conceded that of the whole $200,000,000 of the National loan about $125,000,000 will be taken up by the small subscriptiona This unexpected result has placed some of the banks In a rather awkward position. Those institutions had sold their older issues of bonds in order to get the new ones, which would pay better, the result being that they are now left without these investments and may have to pay a good premium to replace what they have sold. This is the more inconvenient because it interferes with the ability of some of the banks to accept treasury deposits, not having sufficient securities to hypothcate against them. This large absorption of the loan by persons of small means has been unattended by the sale of other securities to procure the means of payment. This investment of so large an amount of the savings of the noninvesting class is not only a healthy sympton as to the well-to-do condition of that class, but also is a fact on which the country may for obvious reasons congratulate itself. By these subscriptions a large mass of our people have increased their interest in the fortunes of the Nation and put themselves in a position for feeling more closely than ever their dependence upon good government, conservative politics and sound money; and more than this, the Investments irea gratifying evidence of the popular confidence in the institutions under ®rhlch the subscribers are governed. There is probably no other country whose masses could make such a contribution to the wants of the government. Bank of England Rate. LONDON, July 3.—lt Is thought probable that the Bank of England will reduce Its rate of discount to 2 per cent, on Thursday next. The money market is distinctly weak. The stock exchange market throughout the week exhibited a good tendency and there were many substantial Increases. Investment securities were particularly strong. English railway shares were bought freely and all commanded higher prices. The market for American securities was dull, pending decisive news as to the operations at Santiago de Cuba and the movements in either direction were small. Saturday's Bank Clearings.

It being Saturday and the last business day before the Fourth of July, trade on wholesale streets yesterday was very quiet and no changes iti values. On Commission row and with the produce men there was a good trade in the forenoon. Fruits and vegetables were in active request and for young cniekens there was a good demand. Following the Fourth lower prices' for articles In the line of fruits and poultry may be looked for, but on Saturday there was not a point calling for comment other than in a general way. Staple groceries are flrn. but despite the active demand for sugar the expected advance in prices has not been realized.

TRAFFIC STILL HEAVY —■♦ THE LOADED-CAR MOVEMENT CONTINUES NEAR THE MAXIMUM. Pn**engfr and Freight Business nt Indianapolis for Jane Shows Handsome Gains—Personal Notes. The volume of business still moving is a gratifying surprise to freight men. as usually the last week in June and the first in July are w’eeks when the loaded-ear movement is at its minimuip. At present it is near what has been considered the maximum— 20,(00 loaded cars. The total movement in the week ending July 2 was 26,664 cars, 19,698 being loaded. This was 226 fewer loaded cars than were handled at this point in the week ending June 25, but 3,749 more than were received and forwarded at Indianapolis in the corresponding week of 1897, 4,351 more than in 1896 and 12,049 more than in 1895, when the Debs strike placed an embargo on business, and 2,176 more than in 1894, w’hich was then to be a heavy business for a summer mmith. As for two weeks past, the empty car movement has been larger than usual. This is due to the fact that hundreds of grain cars are being placed on side tracks at Western points to move the old crop of grain and the new crop of wheat. In shipments of harvest machinery, iron structural work, coal and coke more cars are employed than usual in July, and these cars are usually returned and counted as empties. Seldom in July is the traffic as equally divided in both directions as at present. For instance, the Panhandle (Indianapolis division) brought in 976 ana forwarded east 978 loaded cars, and the Big Four’s Cleveland and Cincinnati divisions show much the same proportion. With north-and-south lines the shipments southbound are about 10 per cent, heavier than north-bound. This is due to the carrying of government supplies, largely. Shipments of grain for export are not as heavy, while shipments of cerealine products, provisions, live stock and lumber are heavier than usual in midsummer. West-bound there is a large tonnage of lower-class freights, staple groceries, etc., being moved. Bocal agents speak of business as being unusually heavy for a summer month. Not in years have the commission houses been doing so much on the bulk tracks and in shipments ol’ fruits, vegetables, etc., in all directions. The packing houses and iron industries continue to be heavy shippers. The wholesale grocers were never before as heavy shippers as for some weeks past. Agents say that, taking business generally, they have never known it to be in a more healthy condition. Receipts of material for street improvements are now an important item with several of the road”. Below is given the car movement for the week ending July 2, and for the corresponding weeks of 1897 and 1896: Name of road. 1898. 1897. 1896. C..

The Big Four is making repairs to its depots at Lafayette, which were built fortyfour years ago, and the citizens of Lafayette feel that as well as Terre Haute, should have new depots. In the month of June the official report of John Ferguson, general baggage agent, shows there were 55,449 pieces of baggage handled, against 50,092 in June, 1897; increase this year, 5,357 pieces.

On July 1 the wages of all employes on the Queen & Crescent road, where there was a reduction In 1593, were restored, which was an agreeable surprise to the men, as It had not been loudly heralded, as in the case of the Louisville & Nashville. J. H. Maddy, press agent of the Baltimore & Ohio, is proving a valuable man. for the B. & O. He was among the first to issue a circular and send it to every agent of the company explaining the requirements of the new revenue law in every detail. A. H.

"Second—Tickets issued In the United States for passage on a vessel not sailing from any port of the United States, but from a Canadian port (or other foreign port) are not subject to stamp tax under this statute.

"Fourth—The only passage ticket for which stamp tax is required to be paid by this statute is a ticket Issued for transportation of the passenger *by any vessel from a port in the United States to a foreign port.’ When. therefore, to such passenger ticket there is attached another ticket entitling the passenger, after his arrival at the foreign port, to transportation to various points in

Europe or elsewhere, such additional ticket is not subject to the stamp tax. “Fifth—The stamp tax for passenger ticket may be affixed thereto and canceled at the pier before the passenger boards the vessel. “Sixth—Where one passenger ticket is issued, even though it contains several names, but one stamp tax is required to be paid thereon. “Seventh—There is no exemption from the stamp tax on charity tickets issued at low rates. “Eighth—The company which leases a private telegraph wire between its New York and Philadelphia offices, which wire is used only for the private use of the company, is not required to pay stamp taxes on messages sent over this wire by its own officers or employes to its own officers or employes. Advanced In V Shape*. THE PLATEAU, opposite Santiago. Friday, July 1, 6:45 a. m.. by the Associated Press dispatch boat Dandy, via Port Antonio, Saturday, July 2, 8 a. m., via Kingston, 11:30 a. m.—The battle of Santiago was going on before daylight this morning. A plateau thirty by one hundred yards in extent was occupied by Captain Grimes’s battery. At 4 o’clock the men were busy digging platforms for four thirteen-pounders and 3.2-callber guns. A semi-circular valley of great depth intervened between the plateau and Santiago, which was fully exposed on the ridge opposite, 2,700 yards away The hospitals were flying Red Cross flags and men were seen massed before the barracks. From Santiago the ridge slopes northwards, ending virtually at a large hacienda called San Juan. Outside the village of Caney along this ridge earthworks and rifle pits were visible. The order of battle was as follows: First and Tenth Cavalry, of the Second Brigade; Third and Sixth Cavalry and one squadron of the Ninth Cavalry, of the First Brigade, and the First United States Volunteer Cavalry Rough Riders, of the Second Brigade, massed on the left of the plateau. Four guns held the plateau. General Garcia, with four thousand Cubans, was down in the valley in front of the plateau. Gen. Kent's division formed the left wing, and General Lawton’s the right, with the cavalry detailed as above, all dismounted, and the Cubans forming the center. The order of advance was in a “V” shape, the arms of the “V” facing nearly to the northeast and southwest, the idea being to advance in this formation, clearing the valley and ridges towards the north and then sweeping round, still in “V” formation, and attacking Santiago from the northeast. Will Never Forget the Klondike. KOKOMO, Ind.. July 3.—Nathan Wild and David Oampbell, of the colony from this place going to Alaska last winter, are home again and glad to be here. Before leaving Chicago they were robbed of S3OO and all their clothing and watches and had to be helped on the journey by their companions. On the steamer from Seattle to Dyea a terrible storm was encountered and their horses and the greater part of their provisions were thrown overboard to save the ship. The next day in a mutiny among the passengers and crew both were scalded with hot water turned on them to quell the riot. At the first opportunity they left the ship and by walking 300 miles over glaciers and icebergs they embarked for home, both suffering terribly from exposure. The limbs of both men are still swollen and they bear the marks of the long hardships. Naval Officers Disappointed. OFF SANTIAGO DE CUBA. July 2, via Port Antonio, Jamaica, 6:30 p. m.—Great disappointment is felt by the naval officers over General Duffield’s inability to cross the stream at Aguadores, which runs through a gully. Had pontoons been brought from Altares, the western bluff of Aguedores, commanding an excellent position, could have been taken and held under cover of the fire of the fleet. There was a trestle across the stream, one span of which had been partly destroyed at the western end. It is not quite understood why General Duffield did not try this method of erbssing. The auxiliary cruiser Yosemite and the repair ship Vulcan arrived this morning. The Newark was not damaged by her collision with the dispatch boat Dolphin. Expect to Give Shatter Trouble. LONDON, July 2.—The Madrid correspondent of the Observer says: “The last official news from Cuba is to the effect that the Americans suffered an enormous loss in the attack upon El Caney and Aguadores, General Linares concentrating his troops toward the defensive w r orks around, the town, where he hopes to overthrow the American forces. Meanwhile the Spaniards from Guantanamo effected a meeting at Altaconga with the reinforcements from Holguin, making S.OOO men who are marching to fall upon the Americans’ right flank, and they can give General Shatter much trouble. “General Pando, with 9,000 men, is now at Romanganagua and Palma Soriano. It is the general belief that the Santiago operations will last a long time.” That Big: Four Deal. JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind., July 2. The deal between the Big Four road and the Monon, if consummated, will mean much for Jeffersonville in a commercial way. It will result in extensive repair shops being built here and the selection of this place as a terminal station. For several months the Big Four has been acquiring all the available land in the vicinity of its freight depot, located at the end of the bridge approach in the suburbs. It i3 understood that a switch will be run in from the six-mile switch, on the Monon, six miles north of here, and the Monon trains run in here, passing over the Big Four bridge. A passenger depot will be built beside the freight depot and a suburban electric line over the new bridge connecting the falls cities. Accidentally Shot His Friend.

NEW YORK, July 2.—A memorial monument to the late Henry George, erected by voluntary contributions of citizens of New York, was unveiled in Greenwood Cemetery to-day. The monument is the work of Richard F. George, one of Henry George’s sons. The bror.ze bust stands upon a pedestal against a slab of granite. The pedestal is seven feet two inches high by eight feet broad, and is finished in the rough at the edges. Inside the border is a polished surface, inclosed by a narrow bronze molding, with bronze wreaths hearing the inscriptions, “September 2, 1829,” and “October 29, 1897.” Talk of a Lynching. MONTPELIER, Ind., July 2 -Sealey Duffy. an employe of Dr. R. B. White, was arrested this morning on a charge of assault preferred by his daughter.
